Price vs Book Value

Book Value is also known as Net Asset Value. It is calculated as :

(Net Worth)/Number of Shares.

It is a measure of the amount per share that a shareholder will get if the company is liquidated today. Book Value is an important measure for safety of investment while investing in a stock. However, Since book value does not count the intangible assets, the prices of companies in sectors like Pharma and IT may be much higher than book value.
